The association of thrombosis and gestational morbidity with antiphospholipid antibodies is termed anti phospholipid syndrome (APS). Annexin 2 (A2) is a profibrinolytic endothelial cell surface receptor that binds plasminogen, its tissue activator (tPA), and beta(2)-glycoprotein I (beta 2GPI), the main antigen for antiphospholipid antibodies. Here, we evaluate A2 as a target antigen in APS. Serum samples from 434 individuals (206 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus without thrombosis, 62 with APS, 21 with nonauto-immune thrombosis, and 145 healthy individuals) were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunoblot for antiphospholipid and A2 antibodies. Anti-A2 antibodies (titer > 3 SDs) were significantly more prevalent in patients with APS (22.6%; venous, 17.5%; arterial, 34.3%; and mixed thrombosis, 40.4%) than in healthy individuals (2.1%, P <.001), patients with nonautoimmune thrombosis (0%, P =.017), or patients with lupus without thrombosis (6.3%, P <.001). Anti-A2 IgG enhanced the expression of tissue factor on endothelial cells (6.4-fold +/- 0.13-fold SE), blocked A2-supported plasmin generation in a tPA-dependent generation assay (19%-71%) independently of beta 2GPI, and inhibited cell surface plasmin generation on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by 34% to 83%. We propose that anti-A2 antibodies contribute to the prothrombotic diathesis in antiphospholipid syndrome.
